Outline planning permission has been granted by Liverpool City Council for the new £25 million King David School campus in Childwall.

The Childwall Road scheme is part of Liverpool's £400 million Building Schools for the Future project which is replacing or refurbishing every secondary school in the city.

It will see the existing King David Primary and King David High Schools replaced with brand new buildings on a combined site.

The project will also include a new nursery, and a replacement for the Harold House youth and community centre which will be used by local people.

Councillor Keith Turner, Executive Member for education, said: "This is fantastic news for the local community and means that we can crack on with delivering a first class school and community facility for the area.

"The new King David High and Primary Schools will provide a top quality education for entire generations of schoolchildren and make sure they get the best possible education in a brilliant learning environment.

"It will also create a 21st century facility which can be used by the whole of the local community.

"Our Building Schools for the Future scheme will completely transform education for secondary school pupils in Liverpool and give our children a great start in life."
